An idea worth spreading

The Los Angeles City Council approved a resolution last night that ought to be a model for governmental bodies throughout the country. It calls for an amendment to the United State Constitution ending so-called “corporate personhood” and making clear that money is not speech — thus, in effect, overturning the Supreme Court’s disastrous Citizens United ruling.

The resolution was supported by the national group, Move to Amend. You can read the text of that group’s proposed constitutional amendment by clicking here.
